Hi!

I recently used software that wanted to use "sort --version-sort".  I
looked around and noticed that even though our sort(1) doesn't support
this, both FreeBSD and OpenBSD's do.

It seems that in 2009, FreeBSD sort was majorly rewritten, and in 2015
imported to OpenBSD.

Has anyone look at adding --version-sort to our version? Or at
switching to FreeBSD's, which has many more options supported?

Compare
https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=sort
to
https://man.netbsd.org/sort.1
